Immerging into the eyes of an angel
Watching the soft blue iris changing with every blink.
Drowning in a waterfall of pure salty tears
That drips like raindrops down her cheeks.
Batting those long black, innocent lashes
Seeing her memories rushing through her mind.
But her eyes, They tell you her life story
With a bittersweet past she cannot re-live.
Her feelings are all bottled up
Behind her blue lagoon eyes.
Her once lively emotions, Isolated
Kept safely sealed inside her heart.
There are no more cascading imaginations
Flowing through her hollow body.
Instead, she lies restless on her bed
Closing her peaceful eyelids shut.
Picturing herself in anothers' shoes
Is exactly where you would find her.
Gracefully resting there in that dream
Until hers finally comes true.
So there she lies forever
Looking back on her past.
Waiting for her eyes to open once more
To see what her future holds.

This was beautifully written & immensely creative. Lovely imagery thoughout and dangling emotions you just want to reach for and grasp. Loved these lines most
"Picturing herself in anothers' shoes
Is exactly where you would find her.
Gracefully resting there in that dream
Until hers finally comes true."
